Traveller Data
The traveller data is taken from the member contact of LS Central. This means the cashier does not have to enter the traveller information in the Global Blue user interface but can maintain it as master data in advance or directly at the point of sale.
Relationship
When issuing, the solution uses the [Member Card No.] entered on the sales transaction to determine the corresponding membership card and from there the member contact. If one of the two links is missing, the issuing stops with a corresponding message.
Note
The cashier records the membership card during the sale. Only then is the traveller data available for the Tax Free Form.
Used fields of the member contact
| Information | Field in the member contact |

| Salutation and gender | [Salutation Code], [Contact Gender] |

| Address | [Address], [Post Code], [City], [County] |

Additional fields for Global Blue
The solution adds four fields to the member contact:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| [GB Tax Registration No.] | Tax registration number of the traveller. |
| [GB Traveller Identifier] | Identifier of the traveller assigned by Global Blue. |
| [Status of Residence] | Residence status of the traveller. |
| [Nationality] | Country of nationality. The user selects a country code from the master data. |
Which of these entries are actually transferred is controlled by the user in the issue model. Information that is not transferred can be added by the traveller in the Global Blue user interface.
Travel document
Information about the travel document, for example type and number of the passport, is not taken from LS Central. The traveller enters it in the Global Blue user interface.
